76 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
77 liloconfig is an simple program for creating a new lilo.conf file.
78 After creating the new configuration file you must execute '/sbin/lilo'.
80 liloconfig use the lilo.example.conf file as template. In the final
81 lilo.conf file you find many useful comments for custom changes.
83 Please pay attention about error messages if liloconfig cannot find
84 any images (/boot/vmlinuz*) oder image symlinks (/vmlinuz, /vmlinu.old).
85 Then you need to search for images by ourself and make some changes
86 in the '/etc/lilo.conf' file. Otherwise no bootloader can be installed
95 Print verbose messages.
98 Force overriding existing lilo.conf.
101 Force overriding/update of boot line in lilo.conf.
